Camp Murray – USA

Context

Low Temperature Thermal Desorption of TPH contaminated soil from Camp Murray at a fixed facility in Tacoma (WA).

Equipment

Contaminated soils were processed by a counter flow, direct fired LTDU (Low Temperature Desorption Unit) with nominal capacity of 35 tons (US) per hour. The equipment train included a pre-screener, belt scale conveyor, rotary dryer, fabric filter bag house, thermal oxidizer, soil moisturizer, and stacker. Natural Gas and recycled oil were used as process fuel.

Treatment Target

The soil to be treated contained TPH concentrations up to 15,000 ppm. All soils were cleaned down to a-less than 50 ppm TPH. Air emissions were in accordance with the local air permit conditions.

This project was designed and executed by the current Haemers Technologies team, when they worked within the legal entity TPS Technologies Inc, which belongs to the Haemers Technologies group.
